Calculation:

Given  = 0

⇒ x(x2 - 2) - 2(x - 3) + 3(2 - 3x) = 0

Now, x3 - 2x - 2x + 6 + 6 - 9x = 0

⇒ x3 - 13x + 12 = 0

∵ x = 3 is a root of the equation, ∴ (x - 3) = 0

If we divide (x3 - 13x + 12) from (x - 3) we will get (x2 + 3x - 4)

⇒ (x - 3)(x2 + 3x - 4) = 0

⇒ x2 + 3x - 4 = 0

⇒ (x + 4)(x - 1) = 0

⇒ x = 1, -4
